He made mechanical wings using their feathers, a pair for he and his nephew. They both applied wax to them onto their backs and jumped out a window.

Icarus flew to high and just like his father warned, the wings' wax melted and he fell to his death in the ocean. Daedalus thought the death of his son was a result of defying the god's imprisonment so he took off his wings and never used them again; living alone with the loss of his son.
